GROUNDS FOR DENIAL OF ENTRY TO THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION

Tax evasion during the period of stay of a foreign citizen in the Russian Federation is considered as ground for denying him entry into the Russian Federation in the future according to Art. 27 § 1 of the Federal Law No. 114 "On the Procedure for Departure from the Russian Federation and Entry into the Russian Federation" (August 15, 1996).

The mentioned provision also applies when a foreign citizen does not fulfill the obligation to pay customs duties and taxes in time, including those related to the violation of the conditions for temporary import of vehicles for personal use to the Eurasian Economic Union customs territory.
